| Former NFL QB Now HomeBanc Exec

| Every mortgage company needs a quarterback who can lead the team to victory — and with football legend Steve Walsh at the helm of their Palm Beach Gardens office in Florida, HomeBanc Mortgage can honestly say they do have one.
Walsh, 37, spent eleven years in pro football earning his place at the University of Miami Athletic Hall of Fame and the Orange Bowl Hall of Fame. This former Cowboys quarterback can be heard during the Florida Atlantic University football games as a color commentator and in commercials for HomeBanc where he manages 19 loan officers. Walsh, who has a finance degree and began his mortgage industry career after retiring from football, noted similarities between the professions. “From a (mortgage) managerial standpoint and from a football standpoint, you need to be concerned about your team players,” he explained. “I enjoy that part of the game — the strategy of growing your company.”
